Do asteroids comets and meteoroids pose danger to earth?

Meteoroids generally do not pose much of a risk as they are generally small enough to burn up in the atmosphere, and do not reach the surface. Asteroids and comets are larger and can cause potentially catastrophic damage if they strike Earth.


Is there junk in space?

The junk consists of the remains of the satellites that have been launched from Earth. They have outlived their usefulness and have been abandoned. Eventually their orbit decays and they fall back to Earth. Most will totally burn up due to friction in the atmosphere. Little of it will reach the surface. But it does pose a hazard to the launch of new satellites and spacecraft.
